Christos Tsiolkas Quotes

He Wanted To Say That He'd Learned To Read In Gaol [jail], To Really Read. He Wanted To Tell Her That The Library Had Been His Favorite Place Inside, That When He Read 'As I Lay Dying' He'd Found A Voice That Made Sense Of Time And Space As He Was Experiencing It In Gaol, That It Had Spoken To Him More Clearly And More Profoundly Than Any Voice He'd Ever Encountered Before: Of How The Past Could Not Be Separated From Memory, Of How It Was Not Only Time That Changed People, But Memory As Well.
